Pennsylvania Station 2008
The superdelegates will go with whoever they perceive as a winner. Today it could be Clinton-- she's hung in there despite being badgered mercilessly to drop out.

It is wrong to assume that either of these Democrats is less qualified than the other. But Democrats must think like Republicans, now more than ever. Who can win?

Our country is a mess. It's going to require a lot of unglamorous, grunt work. To me, it sounds like a job for a woman because if there were ever a house that needed cleaning up, it would be our current one.

In terms of historical importance, the election of a woman to the nation's highest political office would not remotely be comparable, domestically or internationally, to the election of an African-American.

Hillary's refusal to apologize in public is a straitjacket of sorts she and other strong women have developed as a survival strategy in public life.

The new players of the troubling "with us or against us" game are no longer the hawkish Republicans but "either/or" feminists determined to see to it that a woman occupies the Oval Office.

The challenge confronting me and others, who worked with Dr. King, is how to set the record straight without appearing to third parties to be playing the so-called "race card".

The idea that young women are too naive to realize the pervasiveness of sexism is an old Second Wave feminist trope used to dismiss and discredit an entire generation, many of whom now support Obama because he doesn't insult them.

Single women could decide who becomes the next president of the United States. It's as simple and as complicated as that.

It's different this time, say the women of my daughter's generation. We've won the battle. We don't need the White House. Say what? We don't need it? We're past it?

Anne Rice has posted a video on YouTube celebrating Hillary's New Hampshire win and suggesting a Clinton/Obama ticket. Ms. Rice says she is "pro-life", "a Democrat" and "for Hillary."

Will Hillary be able to use her new, and uncomfortable voice, in appropriate ways or will the campaign try to manufacture other 'real' Oprah moments?

While the Kennedy family's endorsements have largely gone to Sen. Clinton, the top prize of the liberal lion has yet to be dispensed.

Clinton's "You go girl" message was just not enough to get a majority of women to vote for her in Iowa, even though traditionally the messaging of political women's groups convinces us that women will vote for women.

Women have realized their power and will decide this election (look out middle-aged, white men -- it ain't no fun when the rabbit's got the gun).

Women, however, weren't content with platitudes, and it became clear to the campaigns that horse races listing female supporters and sound bites were not going to be enough.

Benazir knew what it meant to be a woman leader in an Islamic state. She seemed to be juggling it all in her psyche and her life.

The opposite of patriarchy is not matriarchy, but democracy. And a media that leaves women out of the picture harms everyone, male and female.
Kathleen Reardon | Posted 12.27.2007 | Politics
Could it be that hatred for Hillary is more perception than reality, a political fiction -- that it derives from a purposeful, contrived political poisoning of her well? It wouldn't be the first time a Democrat lost because of a skillfully crafted fiction.

The 35 million eligible-but-not-voting women are the key to the outcome of the 2008 elections -- not just at the presidential level but all up and down the ticket.

Want a sure-fire way to keep women away from the polls? How about calling large groups of them "single and anxious"?
